But now that the M3 range is launching, we’re seeing even more impressive offerings.

AirPods deals are there one day and gone the next. So if you’re looking for the new AirPods Pro, we recommend you grab this deal while you can. Starting April 30, Apple’s second-generation earbuds will be available for just $179, down from $249. That’s a savings of 28% and a full $20 cheaper than it was just a few days ago. It’s also the first time they’ve dropped to such a low price. Stan Schroeder, Senior Editor at Mashable, summed up the second generation AirPods Pro perfectly: “Apple has improved the AirPods Pro (2nd generation) in many small ways. They sound great and the noise cancellation is excellent, but if you already have the original AirPods Pro, the new ones aren’t a significant upgrade.”
